Sawzall blade weldability question
Greetings all,
O.K., it is actually a Morse brand reciprocating saw blade, but you get the idea. I have the need to weld,(TIG) said blade to a piece of 16 ga. CRS to form a serrated edge for gripping. It will only be a short piece, approx. 1 1/4" long, and curved. My question is, the blade contains Cobalt, 8%, will this give me any problems welding? I will probably use either Si/Bronze or SS filler, haven't made up my mind yet. I also figured I will have to cut the blade with a Spedecut rather than a bandsaw due to it being somewhat hardened. Thanks in advance guys, if anyone cares I will report on my success/failure and any injuries that may occur. Jim C Roberts |
